Forums - Website Topics - Looking for new contributors

We have some openings for new contributors.

Just to be clear, I'm not really looking for more people to write editorials and analysis and the like, though I know everyone likes that kind of thing.

Rather, we're trying to expand our general news coverage and I need people who can write up press releases and the like as they come in and put them up.  If you're interested, post here and PM me and send a brief writing sample to news AT vgchartz DOT com.  I'll even offer some basic training.

Also we're looking specifically for those who own a 360 and/or PS3/PSP for more MS/Sony-oriented coverage.  Especially for 360/PSP reviews, since we're really light on that end.  If you want to do 360/PS3/PSP reviews email a sample review as your writing sample.

I need people who can write objectively so I will probably be glancing at your posting history as well.

Obviously these are volunteer-only positions.



Around the Network

I would apply, but I only own a wii. Seems you want the other end of the spectrum.



You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.

I'd apply, but I'm pretty biased for Sony



I'm unbiased but don't own any current gen console...



I would love to do it. I own a 360 and a PS3. My only issue is that if you're looking for news, I usually get it from here. So I'll need a few pointers on where to look.

I'd also glady write press releases, and moderate forums; anything to give back to this site that I've grown addicted to.

EDIT: The writing samples, what exactly are you aking for here? I've never written a VG-orientated article, but if you want proof that I can write, I have multiple essays and things that I can show you. 



Around the Network

By the way, it would be very beneficial if any potential contributors had AIM, since the majority of the VGC staff uses that to discuss things.



Well, I suppose I could write the occasional review or editorial. I own all the current generation systems except for the PS3. I could maybe write some 360 game reviews which there seem to be very few of. And I could rant about whatever crosses my mind.

But mostly, I just want the power



 

 

I think you just want the attention...



People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.

When there are more laws, there are more criminals.

If I wanted attention, I'd just grow a fro.
